Summary: | English is an important subject that is taught in schools, either secondary or primary. However, in recent years, most students are not so interested in the subject of English. Therefore, this study aims to identify the level of interest in English among students and factors that encourage students' interest in English. For this study, 22 students from two levels of students in 4, 5 and 6 were selected to participate in the study which involved 12 boys and 10 girls. Questionnaires were used as an instrument containing 25 items using Likert scale measurement. It is found that the level of interest in the English was at average level. Respondents in this study agreed that the methods used by their teachers in the classroom can help them in developing their interest in English. In addition, the majority of respondents was also interested in the activities carried out by their teachers to participate. From these findings, the correct teaching methodology and well - designed teaching will lead to a positive impact among students. Therefore, teachers and school departments should realize that they play a large role in shaping students' interest in English. |
